pound to 200 gallons of water, for the Codling Moth, Tent Caterpillar, 
the Canker-worm, and the Apple Bucculatrix. He states (infer-

errors and is not of great value, ad we mention it simply as a matter

white arsenic experiments the foliage was slightly damaged with a 
solution of 1 pound of this substance to 320 gallons of water.
